6.
The use of the Propane Stove must be in conformity with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the standard for storage and Handling of Liquefied
Petroleum Gases, ANSI/NFPA 58. For Canada, the use must be in
accordance with the current CAN/CGA B149.2 installation codes.
CARBON MONOXIDE INHALATION HAZARD
1.
2.
The Propane Stove is an unvented LP Gas-fired stove. It must never
be used inside vehicles, campers, in a house, or any other sealed
structure. Carbon monoxide is produced during operation and is
DEADLY in a closed environment. Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning
resemble the flu, with headaches, dizziness, or nausea. If you have these signs,
the Propane Stove may not be working properly or is improperly vented. Get fresh
air immediately.
If you smell gas: Shut off gas to the appliance. Extinguish any open flame.
Never light a match. Never turn on an electrical switch. Evacuate the area at
once. Call for professional help.
RISK OF FIRE AND/OR EXPLOSION
1.
2.
Do not store extra propane tanks in the vicinity of the Propane Stove
or any other appliance.
If gas is smelled during operation, immediately close the valve on the
propane tank. Propane gas is odorless. An odor-making agent is added
to propane/LP gas to enable you to smell the gas if it may be leaking.
3.
4.
If the Propane Stove shuts off during operation, close the valve on the
propane tank. Check the amount of gas in the tank and wait 5 minutes for
the gas to clear before restarting. If it continues to shut off during operation,
have it serviced by a qualified technician.
Never place the Propane Stove within 15 feet of flammable objects such as
wood, trees, overhangs, and umbrellas. This stove also requires a clearance
of at least 3 feet from nonflammable materials to allow proper combustion.

6.
Keep solid combustibles such as paper or cardboard a safe distance away
from the Propane Stove. Never use the Stove in spaces which do or may
contain volatile or airborne combustibles, or products such as gasoline,
solvents, paint thinner, dust particles or unknown chemicals.
Always operate the Propane Stove with the propane tank in its vertical
upright position, on a noncombustible surface. While in operation, do not tilt
or lean the propane tank on its side. Never turn the tank upside down, not even
when it seems empty, as this may cause clogging of valves and components
which could lead to dangerous flare-ups or fire.

This Propane Stove must be positioned and operated so that it is not
directly exposed to water spray, rain, or dripping water.
Make sure to remove ALL packing materials before using the Propane
Stove.

NOTE: The propane tank used must be constructed and marked in accordance
with the specifications for LP propane cylinders by the U.S. Department of
Transportation. (See Figure A.)
To connect to the propane tank, first make sure the Temperature Control Knobs (4)
of the Propane Stove are in their “OFF” positions. Then, screw the Gas Valve of
the LP Regulator & Hose Kit firmly onto the propane tank’s discharge pipe.
(See Figure A.)
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1.
CAUTION! Always use clean equipment and utensils. Before using the
Propane Stove, and after using this product, clean all parts in warm, clean water
and antibacterial soap. Then, thoroughly dry.
2.
3.
NOTE: Higher altitudes may affect the cooking efficiency of the Propane Stove.
Make sure the Propane Stove and propane tank are located on a clean, dry, level
surface capable of supporting the weight of the Stove and propane tank. Keep
the Propane Stove and propane tank away from other flammable objects.
WARNING! NOT FOR INDOOR USE.
4.
Check to make sure the Temperature Control Knobs (4) on the Propane Stove are
in their “OFF” positions. Open the gas valve on the propane tank and check and
smell for gas leaks. Perform a bubble test by applying warm soapy water over
every joint, regulator, fitting, and anywhere else there may be a possible leak.
Observe carefully to see if bubbles expand, indicating a leak. A large leak can
blow the soapy solution away instead of forming bubbles. If leaks are found, do
not use the Propane Stove until the leaks have been stopped. After testing, make
sure to close the gas valve on the propane tank.
5.
6.
To use the Burners (2 and 2A), open the gas valve on the propane tank. Apply a
long, lighted match or a fireplace lighter to the Burner which is to be lit. Keep
fingers and hands well away from the Burners. Next, push the relevant Tem-
perature Control Knob (4) and turn it to its “ON”position. Once the Burner is lit,
safely dispose the match and adjust the Temperature Control Knob to the desired
setting. The Grill Chamber (3) will be hot while the Middle Burner is in use.
(See Assy. Diagram.)
To use the Grill Chamber (3), open the Grill Door (8) and remove the Tray with
Rack (9). Place the food on the Rack and push the Tray into the Grill Chamber.
Close the Grill Door securely. Then, light the center Burner (2A) to grill the food.
When the food is cooked, turn off the gas and use the Grill Handle (10) to remove
the Tray with Rack. The center burner will have an open flame while the Grill
Chamber (3) is in use; take appropriate precautions. (See Assy. Diagram.)
